PULL TOGETHER NOW (PTN) was founded in response to invitations from elders and knowledge-holders to return home to our ancestral roots and re-member, renew, and protect our sacred connection and relationship with Water, Land, Sky, the Cosmos, and one another ─ the community of Life to which we belong. We accept our sacred responsibility to be Good Ancestors and care for peace, children, elders, and Mother Earth before all else.

PTN creates opportunities for us to share what holds us together for the long-term benefit of Peoples and Planet → our ancient and new stories, values, land-based knowledges and science, experiences, ceremonies, songs, the arts, and real food from place. People are coming from the 4-Directions with love, gratitude, and respect - transcending age, cultural, social, economic, political, geographic, and other imaginary barriers for the harmonious, healthy, and equitable world we know is possible and The Future deserves to inherit from us. We’re celebrating the beauty within and around us, and addressing what isn’t, through love and action with compassion leaving no one, no place, out or behind!

Peace and the well-being of all Creation depends on humankind following Natural Law and respecting, renewing, and repairing our relationship with each other and Sacred Water. Water knows no boundaries, nurtures all Life, and shows us how to get along. What we do to Water we do to ourselves and our common home - Earth. No water ─ no air, no forests, grasslands, or plants, no crawlers, hoppers, runners, swimmers or fliers, no food, no stories and songs, no children, no us ─ no Life.

Storying a New Now, together→
The world has always had the wisdom to flourish in harmony with Mother Earth and her children of all species. What it has lacked is the will and the ability to connect all the common wisdom into one truth, one insight with variations only due to location, geography, and weather. We all say the same thing when it comes to Mother Earth and her children. The Life-affirming transformations we support are rooted in reverence for all Life and catalyzing action with compassion free of the centuries-old domination system driving perpetual war, genocide, ecocide, corruption, greed, depletion, and exploitation ─ the cartels of death-politics seen and unseen.

→ The Path We Walk begins within, at home, together.

Becoming a Good Ancestor begins at birth and continues until we cross over. All are responsible for relaying each generation’s truth and strength. Our collective ancestral memory carries wisdom, experience, keen observation, and spiritual insights gained over long periods of time. Good Ancestors look back and forward across countless generations for guidance that illuminates humanity’s genuine Life-affirming path forward, inclusive of all Peoples without preference for any cultures, nationalities, spiritual traditions, status, age groups, or place on Earth. We follow the protocols of reciprocal relationship rooted in Natural Law, not the hierarchical law of man that perpetuates domination and destruction of Life.

What’s your story? How are you? Who are you? Where do you come from? Where are you headed? What kind of world do you want to live in and hand off to The Future? What does Mother Earth need from us now to help her heal herself? Thank you for making a positive difference where you live!

Thank you for supporting PTN!

“Dene Ch’anie, which translates as The Path We Walk, a circular mode. Embedded within Dene Ch’anie is a Code of Conduct, according to Natural Laws. When we act outside of these Natural Laws, we upset the balance between body, spirit, heart and mind, leading to negative consequences. We need to reconnect with Mother Earth to rediscover the Natural Laws, as individuals, families and communities.”              
Elder Francois Paulette, Smith’s Landing Dene First Nation
